"Adam is one of the most versatile product design leaders I have had the pleasure to work with. He is an amazing player / coach who has a high acumen for design and solving customer problem but is also a great people manager. He started as the first designer while at Emotive and quickly grew a high functioning team that had tremendous respect for his mentorship and leadership. Not only did he create a cohesive team environment, I referenced his approach to managing people as an inspiration to develop my skills in that domain. He is also very fast in delivery, has a strong business acumen and really understands his customers. It would be a pleasure to have the opportunity to work with him again in the future."

"Adam was my design manager and mentor at Emotive. But he was also so much more than that, he was also my aspiration and my advocate--and honestly, the best boss I've ever had. He created a very positive environment for designers by gaining us a seat at the table. By being the first in-house designer, Adam was able to demonstrate how design can have positive impact on user experiences and the business. He launched the first design system at Emotive and initiated cross-functional collaboration to create a consistent experience across the platform. Adam supported us by establishing processes and measures that enabled us to be more efficient and effective with our day-to-day; essentially setting up DesignOps for the team. He was consistently supportive and involved in our team's works, and coached in a way that allowed for genuine candor. Adam was intentional in how he connected with us. We had meaningful 1:1 conversations weekly. He genuinely cared and really made me feel like I mattered. He seriously was the best boss ever."

"Adam is the prime example of an ideal director to work under. He carries the skills and experience to tackle any project thrown his way, while at the same time making sure you felt just as involved. He brings out the best in anyone by identifying their weaknesses and helps to turn them into strengths. Adam shows genuine interest in listening to others' ideas and implementing them into the workspace, creating a collaborative and productive environment. He is a pleasure to work with and would instantly strike improvement to any company he works for."
